I cannot heap enough praise upon Andrews Creve Coeur. The head of school maintains a healthy balance of forward thinking and traditional foundations at the same time which seems to be a rarity these days. The teaching staff is fantastic and have genuine personal interest in not only your child's development but with you as a parent and your entire family as well. With Joe Patterson at the helm, Andrews Academy and your child will have a bright future!
